Dear Staff and Students 

 Public/ fan survey invitation

Good day fellow South Africans

We trust you are keeping well, and are doing your best to contribute towards the fight against Covid-19.

The prevailing Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is anticipated to have quite a significant impact on the sports sector. To this end, the South African Cultural Observatory (SACO), a project of the Department of Sports, Arts and Culture that is mandated to conduct research in the sector, has developed a survey, to assess the COVID-19 pandemic impacts on the sports industry to inform policies and support sector strategies. Specifically, the interest is in hearing from the general public and sports fans.

Please take a few minutes to complete the survey examining public experiences and perceptions of the pandemic on sports participation, activities and businesses. In addition, we request that you forward the survey to relevant individuals/ organisations that may be interested in participating. This will assist us to get an in-depth understanding of the impact of the pandemic on the sports sector.
